Timeless European elegance meets modern refinement in this stately 1.5-story home on 1.26 park-like acres in the heart of West Des Moines. Built in 1972 and reimagined in 2018, it offers 5966 SF of finished, sophisticated living space. A clay tile roof, gated courtyard with artisan tile, iron gates, and stained glass set a romantic tone. Inside, the vaulted foyer, iron staircase, arched doorways, and custom built-ins add charm. The gourmet kitchen boasts high-end appliances and bespoke cabinetry, flowing into a vaulted family room overlooking the lush backyard, pool, and deck. With 6 spacious bedrooms (with a possible seventh on the main level), including a main-level primary, plus 3 full, 2 three-quarter, 1 half, and a dedicated pool bath, this home blends comfort with luxury. A finished basement adds flexible living space, ideal for entertaining or multigenerational living. A rare opportunity to own a classically inspired yet fully updated estate in one of the city's most desirable neighborhoods. 2018 remodel included new Marvin windows and sliders, new floor finishes, upgraded mechanicals, new plumbing, new electric, new kitchen, and new bathrooms! 3950 of living square feet, plus 2016 Finished square footage in the lower level. This home would make an exceptional multi-generational residence as well!
